    Landlords Saracen

    I have been given a “Landsords Saracen EPA” kit and the only review I have seen was an extremely poor one on YouTube. Can anyone else tell me if they have done this kit and it is indeed rubbish or they enjoyed it?

    Bag in a Box - Any good?

    I keep reading the shelf life is only 7 days! Not with it for me but you say 3-4 weeks? that sounds much more viable

    Bag in a Box - Any good?

    This sounds great if you attach a beer engine. Have you done this and if so how was it?

    King Keg seal spares.

    My king keg came with a rounded O seal. There is also a squared o seal on the market which claims to be “far superior” Does anybody know this to be accurate?

    Budget Pressure Barrels

    So, ended up getting a king keg and buying a pressure gauge. I half filled with water and fired a co2 cylinder in, but I think most of the air escaped before it even went in. The valve is the piercing pin type. It did pressurise to about 3 psi but leaked. I'm so worried about over tightening I...

    Budget Pressure Barrels

    If the gods are good I will have my faith restored. I have an all grain bitter in one as we speak as well as Youngs mocha porter in another so fingers crossed. :beer1:

    Budget Pressure Barrels

    Thanks for the advice. I don't really make lagers so my budget barrels will serve a purpose. Do people still use them for all grain brews?

    Budget Pressure Barrels

    I've had a couple of snags in the past when my barrel hasn't pressurised after priming, I have put this down to over tightening and warping the seals. Are any other common faults with the budget barrels?

    bad cat imperial red

    I wouldn't worry too much if the temperature is right. It sounds similar to when I made it and it still had me with my head down the toilet after 6 or 7 pints

    One Percent

    I hear you. My partner is a nurse and this Pay Rise thing does not sit well with her, although she does think they deserve one she doesn't believe this is the right time as many people have been struggling financially and its not just NHS staff that have been fighting the good fight.

    Smoked Porter

    Thanks for the reply sir. I knew it was too early really but I'll have something to measure against when I next have one. ✌

    Smoked Porter

    I brewed a smoked porter and took the recommendation to add some oak chips. I bottled the other day and cracked one open (after 4 days), no surprise it wasn't that pleasant and I fear I the woodiness could be too much. Can this mellow out over the conditioning period?
